“You've lost your pride. If you want to succeed in this world, you need to focus on yourself. Somewhere along the way, you fell under the spell of some perverted version of the American Dream. Not everyone deserves everything. Not clothes, food, not medicine, not even life. The smartest deserve to rise. The strongest ought to survive. That's how a business, a country, a family advances”
―Moira Queen to her son Oliver
